Wholesale Slaughter of Birds.

The law, the newspapers, the Audubon
Society, and other useful agencies. have
put some check to the barbarous fashion
of wearing dead birds for ornaments in
the politer neighborhoods. but it must
lingcr in the rural districts. A Laurens
correspondent of the Ioaca State Register
calls attention ''to a great wrong that IS
being done in this section of Iowa. There
are large number Of men and boys en-
gagged in killing small birds, and one day
last week there were bought at this town
over three thousand birds, and they aver
age, shipping by express. from one to
four barre's day. of sixty dozen to the
barrel. The birds all so to New York
City. These birds are all insect destroy
crs, and if there is not stop put to 1t,
farm crops must suffer from the extermi-
nation of these useful creatures" If they
are brought "to New York City" it must
be chiefly for manufacture and distribu-
tion in the finished state to country mar
kets. This concentration of the business
mere affords an excellent opportunity tor
friends of the birds to strike "swashlng
blow" at the evil by pursuing the con-
signors here of this melancholy freight,
whose possession of it is an offense under
our law. These dealers must be well
known, and ought to be complained of,
the New York law providing a hand
some reward for complainants in such
cases. Meanwhile the statutes. of Iowa
provide remedy, inficting penalty Of
not less than S. nor more than S25 for the
offense of destroying most birds or their
crms. .--Erenipg Post.

An Indian Scholars English.

The following was written by an Indian
scholar in the Hampton school:
cone day, bright day, and little bird
happy and stood on log and sang all
day long. That bird doesn't know any
thing about cat. She thinks nobody IS
near to her. But behind the near log
one sly Old cat is watching. She want
to eat for supper, and she thinks about
stealing all the time. The old cat came
very slow, and by-and-by she go after the
little bird, but she does not sec him, and
sang aloud again. She sang just like
this: L always try to do what is right :;
when I ever died I 60 to heaven That
bird said these all words, and shall not
forget the bird what it said, and these all
words it said and after two three
minutes go died: that cat jumped and
catch and kill, eat up all except left little
things from bird, wings, legs, or skin,
and that bird is glad to die because she is
very good bird. That little bird has last
time sang, and very happy was the little
bird. after that. think the old cat have
good dinner and happy just same as bird
was first time"

A Practical Temperance Sermon.

n
The Rev. John Rhey Thompson preached
an eloquent and earnest sermon upon the
temperance question recently In new 1ork
He said in substance:
1T is my purpose tonight to discuss In
living way a practical question and to discuss
it on the solid basis of conceded facts l shall
give a record of the sale and use Of intoxicat-
ing liquors as beverage, in single week, in
the cities of Brooklyn and New Jersey, as re-
ported in the daily papers"
The speaker then read accounts Of sixty
one arrests for murder, robbery, arson, wife
beating, assault and battery, and number
Of cases of suicide Proceeding he said:
This is no exaggeration. 1t is terrible
reality. and vet it is all under the sanction Of
the law. And this is all among the lower class
of people Now look behind those lace cur
taius, into the homes of the wealthy, Whose
money keeps their names out Of the paper,
there is wife-beating there. We hear OF so
many wealthy men dying OF brain fever.
Their doctors could tell you different story.
Add New York City to these accounts, then
aid the world, and then just stop and think
Bad us New York is, it is nothing to be COM
pared with England. Just think of the waste
of labor, waste OF time, waste Of health, waste
of will, waste of heart that rum causes What
is this cause? Is it the law! Who makes the
law. Is it better enforcement OF the laws!

Washing Helps.

Lately we have tried putting little
kerosene in the water when the white
clothes are soaked over night, and it
acts like a charm. At first I thought it
might have an unpleasant smell, but such
is not the case. The rinsing has great
deal to do with the clear look of the
clothes. Hard water is the best for this
purpose, and only little blueing is to
be allowed. The chief thing is to get all
the suds' out Of the articles Colored
fabrics should be washed for tie first
time in salt and water. If the colors are
delicate, the goods should be washed,
rinsed starched and we'll shaken out,
then hung at once on the lines. 1t is
always better to fold clothes the night
before ironing; it seems to help the
smoothing process. A great help to
washing day is a mangle, and that family
is fortunate who possess this very useful
help. Here, again, kerosene comes IN to
assist in laundry work, spoonful mixed
in the starch, being one of the aids to
polishing, not always known. Sufficient
attention is not given to sorting and
soaking white clothes, and sometimes
the quality of soap makes great differ
ance, and this can be discovered only by
a fair trial. Anything that helps to
make washing day easy is to be done.
And of all the ingredients used as a
washing fluid, prefer plain borax, that
can be used without injury to fabrics, or
to the hands of the laundry maid

them were Commodore Vanderbilt, Will
lam H. Vanderbilt. another of the
family, Governor Gilmore's son, John
Hyde, the artist, Barnum and number
of others, including myself. Young Gil
more was a lively young chap then,
but he has deteriorated and become q
minister since. Gilmore put up the job
and let us all into it. He twisted the
talk around to physical prowess, and got
Barnum to brag about how fast he could
run. Across the plateau in front
of the hotel was rail to which horses
were tied Gilmore proposed that we all
start from the piazza and run to the rail
and that the last man to touch the rail
with his hand pay for the drinks for the
crowd Everybody agreed, and we got
into line, ell except the Commodore, who
sat on the piazza and gave the word. P:
r. was lively and confident, and waited
impatiently for the word. The Commo.
dore said 'gon and away went the greatest
show on earth like Jumbo in a sprint
race. He took the lead right away.
Everybody else pretended to run for all
that was in them, but took care not to
get ahead of P. T. The Snowman got
there in great style, put his hand on the
rail, and turned around in triumph.
There stood the rest of the crowd in line
behind him, not one of them touching
the rail. When he heard the Commodore
roa-, he took in the situation. He was the
only one who put his hand on the rail at
all. Barnum set them up. but he was so
mad that he couldn't tell q plausible
fairy tale for week.:--Ne,o YORK. Letter.
